Introduction
Derivative use pilot
This publication falls under a CEN-CENELEC pilot on derivative use (as approved by the CEN/CA
(Administrative Board) through decision 38/2019).
CEN has the copyright to all CEN publications, including their entire content and associated metadata, as
described in CEN-CENELEC Guide 10 “Policy on dissemination, sales and copyright of CEN-CENELEC
Publications”. However, through the derivative use pilot, CEN gives permission to the copying, replication
and translation of content from a CEN/TC 440 deliverables in specific circumstances.
Under the derivative use pilot, specific sections of CEN/TC 440 publications may be copied, replicated
and translated in cases where this is a necessary condition for the meaningful implementation of the
publication. The sections which fall under derivative use will typically be elements, such as semantic
definitions and rules related to the use of information elements, and the name, definition and description
of processes and transactions, which are needed in software solutions, whether intended for sale in the
private market or for use in the public sector, and documents guiding the implementation and use in
specific countries and/or business sectors.
Under derivative use, any use of content, which has been copied, replicated, or translated from a
CEN/TC 440 publication, should comply with the intended use of the publication. Derivative use cannot
be applied in use cases other than those the publication is intended to support. The intended use of this
publication is set out below.
Intended use of this publication
This document has been developed for any organization looking for guidance on the implementation and
use of electronic procurement deliverables as well as for organizations developing or implementing
software applications related to electronic procurement, such as software providers, business entities
and national authorities. These software applications should be in conformance with this publication.
Parts of the document to which derivative use apply
Each sub-clause, which falls under derivative use, will be clearly marked with a footnote. The degree to
which the specific content can be modified, is defined in CEN/TS 17011-3:2024, Electronic Public
Procurement — Architecture — Part 3: Customization Guideline.
Annex A provides an overview of the line number references to all sub-clauses of the publication which
fall under derivative use.
Use of ePO ontology
This document uses the ePO ontology, owned by the European Union, available here
(https://github.com/OP-TED/ePO) and licensed under a CC BY 4.0 licence.

3.4

predefined set of next steps.
3.16
transaction
content of data exchanged or shared between the agents in a collaboration
Note 1 to entry: A transaction is the atomic unit that leads to a synchronized state in the information systems of
collaborating agents. It is the basic building block to define the choreography between agents. When an agent
recognizes an event that changes the state of a business object within a business process, it uses a transaction to
synchronize with the collaborating agent. A transaction therefore changes the state of a business process. It carries
the intention of the initiating agent and is represented by a data structure that is defined by a data model. The
exchange of a transaction may alter legal obligations between business partners.
4 Positioning in EIRA
EIRA provides a reference model that enables architects to position the IOP specifications. This document
provides a domain-specific IOP specification to which any SBB implementing the ABB should be
compliant to. The positioning of this document in the EIRA context is specified in Table 1.
IoP specifications provide a valuable source of information to formulate requirements during
architecture development and solution development. By identifying architectural building blocks
through a common terminology, it:
— helps reuse of cross domain building blocks such as, for instance, e-Signature Verification and
Validation Service, and e-Timestamp Creation Service;
— helps synchronization with European solutions such as CEF eDelivery;
— and will provide guidance in using them to provide the prescribed capability enabling, thus managing
and rationalizing IT portfolios.

elements which is specified at the third level of the model.
